Cleveland played their best game of the year against them last time, so I am hoping for a good game.

But the realist in me says.....Bengals 27 Browns 10.

I have the unfortunate pleasure of attending this game with my girlfriends father who is a Bengals fan.

All I know is that Marvin needs to manage the clock and playcalling a lot better than he did today.... 3 possessions in the redzone and all u get is one FG, Missed FG & Fumble ..... We actually miss Chris Henry more than people think. I also hope that Keith Rivers and Benson can play next week too.

Which also was today's line versus the Raiders.

I smell an upset brewing here.

I hope so, but I wouldn't bet on it.

I'm hoping that things are starting to "click" for Quinn, and that this week wasn't just an aberration. Maybe it's going to take good games against a couple of bad teams to get him into the groove. Anything that builds his confidence is good right now.

Weren't people saying the same about DA after the last Bengals game? I honestly think someone other than Quinn/Anderson will be the starting QB for the Browns next year. If not, the Browns will be in for another long season.

As to this game, I think the Bengals win by 7-10. The come home to PBS and I have a feeling Benson will be back for this one. I look for him to get about 30 carries in this one.

The Bengals should win, but then they should have won against Oakland and they didn't. Who knows? It will be interesting to see how Brady Quinn does against the Bengal secondary.

You would have thought the Bungles would be getting ready to be 9-2 going into the back half of the schedule after they should have won yesterday and win this one...

The collapse of the Bengals has started.If the Bengals can botch this game it will be a downward spiral for the remainder of the year.

This series always seems to be competitive. I would expect more of the same.

Bengals 24
Browns 20

Bengals will win...
the Oakland game you could almost anticipate...those west coast games never go well...
but; back in Cinti.; I cannot see that anemic Browns offense having any success at all against the Bengals D.
If the Bengals don't win this game; clearly they don't deserve the playoffs.

Bengals 28-0.

Thankfully Quinn had a good game so Mangini will start him. Anderson knows how to light up the Bengals.


Still no passing TDs since #15 went down. Caldwell and Chad are almost never open since they don't have to account for Henry. If they aren't going to use Purify I don't understand why Coffman isn't activated.

I think Quinn will struggle with the pressure at times, maybe have 2 picks and 2 tds.

27-14 Bengals.

gotta admire the ability to talk trash at 1-9...
either extreme hubris, or extreme stupidity. Either way, kudos to you!

(by the way, I would probably spell it 'Bungles")

Not really talking smack.. I just don't think the Bengals are THAT great a team.. definitely not saying the Browns are either. For some reason though, the Browns actually show up vs. divisional opponents, so hopefully they can pull it out.

Bungles/Bungals, its all the same :)

Bengals will be amped for this game. Jon Fanene already guaranteed victory. I think Cincinnati has something to play for (a perfect division record for first time in franchise history). Bengals get it done in the jungle. Convincingly.
